Choose Fusion theme in Theme selector
Select a course where there is an assignment set
Open assignment page and go to 'View assignment submissions"
Test to see that the 100px padding (left/right) is reduced to 1% (approx 10px)thus increasing page width.
Test also the font-size, which has been reduced in the table, is legible.

Description

In the fusion theme, the view assignments sheet, the grade buttons are not visible unless scrolled to. Since the assignment scroller is often off the page, the browser scrollbar must be used to navigate to the bottom so that the horizontal scrollbar can be used. This is poor web design.

It is not possible to see both the name and the grade button unless using maximum resolution screens with the browser maximized. The "last modified submission" and "last modified (grade)" headers are far too wide. The table column spacing is too wide for those columns (which are just date fields). In any case, the grade button would make most sense just to the right or left of the name.

Please pass a request to reduce the column widths for the two widest columns or ask for the grade button placement to be modified.

Thank you for reporting the problem you are having with this theme, however, this is the way that page works. You can restrict the number of submission per page, and also close unwanted columns thus reducing the width of the scroll.

The only reason the last column is wider than it needs to be is because of the title "Final grade" in the header. Also the fact that Fusion theme uses a larger font size than say the Standard theme, the columns will be wider. This can be adjusted in you browser using the Zoom + or - depending if you want to shrink the page or make it bigger.

The only thing I can do with the page is to reduce the padding, which will give you more width to the page, especially if you have all the blocks docked.

I have not added a fix for MOODLE_20_STABLE as I was under the impression this branch is only receiving security updates and not improvements.
